Issue Overview:
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libtiff processed certain TIFF images using the Pixar Log Format encoding. An attacker could create a specially-crafted TIFF file that, when opened, could cause an application using libtiff to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2012-4447)
A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libtiff handled DOTRANGE tags. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted TIFF file that, when opened, would cause an application linked against libtiff to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-5581)
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the tiff2pdf tool. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted TIFF file that would cause tiff2pdf to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3401)
A missing return value check flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the ppm2tiff tool. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted PPM (Portable Pixel Map) file that would cause ppm2tiff to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-4564)
